• Multiple nodes are configured to perform a set of operations we call it Cluster. A Hadoop cluster includes a single Master node and multiple Slave nodes. Master node that is Namenode which contains the metadata of the actual data and Slave nodes that is the Datanode which contains actual data.

• In short, a Cluster is a set of Nodes
